E566-BFEB-EA00-4-D75-AE8-B-3-AE07-B46-A8This is the kit. But I’m going to go for a different scheme one if these three.


 

50-EE2648-877-D-44-F7-B1-E9-A10-D6901-F0

Philippine.


CC9-C014-C-F78-B-4620-BA88-E53-B65-E29-C

Chinese


E12-CBC3-A-E324-49-FD-9508-1-E555-AAAE5-
 

Guatemalan, actually remained in service till 1957!

 

The Philippine is probably my favourite followed (probably because it’s unusual to see a peashooter in camo)by the Guatemalan, I have a few days to make up my mind.

8-BE7-B410-4554-4-C64-80-B1-ED2324-FF392Not so much a sprue shot as a bag of bits. Raised panel lines and rivets they’ll have to go. The only saving grace is that the rescribe should be fairly simple.

 

Does sanding off the panel lines count as cleaning up the major parts ?

Losing all that lovely detail :whistle:

 

I don't see that being a problem 

 

Good luck with this one

26-A2-BB1-F-2-E54-422-F-84-BB-A9575-F3-ENow I’m hedging. Actually I think I’ll print off all three sets and decide the scheme based on how well the build goes, ie if I’m stuck for time Chinese if I have time for three colours Philippine…

Nice one Marklo!

Thanks, Still can’t decide on which scheme, hmmm

 

My head says the Chinese scheme, it’s still different but easier, but my heart says the Philippine because a Peashooter in camo is really different.


Now I’ve bought a pale grey rattle can which would do for the undersurface of the Philippine scheme or the whole of the Chinese one ( the colour is called Houdini for what it’s worth) so I’ll probably make my decision based on where I am timewise when I get to the rattle can.

Warpage more like!

Like most things in the universe everything is relative :)  I favour the eclectic in my model making, but I’m probably staggeringly dull irl.

The model is but an extension of myself, well not really but you know what I mean.  And no I haven’t been drinking(yet) but I am on a surprising variety of medications :)
